Field Validations for Bank Account and Credit Cards
Previous versions allowed non-numeric characters, for example a space or a hyphen or a alpha char. The Beta does not. Whilst not a defect, allowing users to enter spaces increases readability. Hyphens and Alpha's are sometimes valid characters in account numbers.
I am referring to the fields 'Routing Number' and 'Account Number'

You are correct that other versions of our app do allow the use of non-numeric characters in the routing number and account number fields. I will mention this to our Android development team. Thank you for pointing this out!
I would advise caution when editing for readability though. If you are only using the item for reference, then it makes sense to add spaces to make it more readable. However, if you are using the item to complete web forms, this can cause problems. For example, if I edit my bank card number to add spaces in the login item for my bank account, my banking website no longer recognizes it as a valid card number.
